Slightly baffled by Liz Jones’ confused rant on beauty halls today; which in the end didn’t amount to much about beauty halls, but the size of the samples she was offered, and the fact that she can’t read shampoo labels in the shower. She ‘hates’ the instruction leaflets that come with beauty creams, she ‘destests’ small size potions found in hotel bathrooms and she ‘can’t stand’ when she can’t get to the very bottom of a tube of skin care. Seriously, is there nothing more pressing in the beauty world to discuss in a national newspaper than petty rants over nothing? L’Occitane print all their bottles with a raised Braille font, so Liz, maybe learning Braille for Shampoo and Conditioner might be the answer, and maybe don’t take up the sample offers if you know you are going to hate them so. Alternatively, you could do a comprehensive feature on why so many beauty adverts are coming under fire for misleading their customers….surely more current? Definitely more interesting.

I HEART this post! Classic!
WTF about small hotel bottles? I don’t know WHAT hotels shes staying at but they restock them every flipping day.
Unless she has an incredibly big head no? *ponders*
Me thinks she should just, oh I dunno…TAKE HER OWN PRODUCTS on holiday next time 😛
YEAH!!! I love it when a beauty writer shows her true grit and doesn’t hide behind her mascara and lip gloss. You wrote that with sass and you just earned yourself major street credit baby! I love you even more you killer, you! I hope she reads this, with her nerdy magnified reading glasses on a chain, and cries. And then reaches for a kleenex from her travel-sized tissue case you KNOW she nicked from some hotel. HMPH! xoxoxoxox one of 365
